I just bought the intake manifold off of a 2006 2.4 and I'm going to put it on my 2008 2.2. Ive done a ton of searching and have it pretty much figured out but still have a few questions. First off can someone clarify which engines will need an adapter to run the 2.2 TB with 2.4 IM? I read that an 08 doesnt but is that still true for me since I have the older style IM? Also Ive seen posts saying you need the lip that comes off the throttle body but then others say you only need it if you need the adapter. Heres some pictures of the IM I bought. Any insight would be appreciated.

Link wont take me to a specific thread. There were only two motors made for the 2.2L engine. The L61 and the LAP. If you have the LAP then you already have the 2.4L IM and you just wasted your money. If you have the L61 you need the adapter.

Ended up getting it on Sunday. It went really easy and I checked for vacuum leaks, seems to be tight with no leaks. My ultragauge shows no codes, not even pending after 150 miles. Car runs great but hasnt seen high rpms because Im worried about it running lean without a tune. Im ordering a trifecta tune today or tomorrow though. Already have the cable on the way. Should be a fun change.

I might have to add it to my plans then lol... sometime after my financial situation recovers from the Intake manifold, tune, new tires, and a speeding ticket.
Did you ever run the 2.4 TB before you went to your current setup?

So. I currently have a 2005 Chevy cobalt 2.2L and yes I know. Untunable. Say I’m gonna purchase a wrecked. 2009 Chevy cobalt with a 2.2L. Can I just swap all the computer systems and be able to now tune my car?

so me and a buddy are trying to build his 06 chevy cobalt ls we are looking into all options. we live in new york and im wondering if there is a way to swap the ecm from a 07 chevy cobalt ls to a 06 chevy cobalt ls and still get it to pass ny state inspection

I have a 07 cobalt Ls 2.2, I heard a read a lot of negative thing that people have to say about modifying those cars and say it’s pointless!. How and why would it be pointless for modifying a car you own and what to look, sound and perform outstanding and have something unique that you can say...

I am buying my first chevy cobalt. Its nothing special like the ss. Sadly its the LT for now.. i am wondering if i do a muffler delete or just straight pipe the exhaust if i will get a really nice sound as well as some crackles (pops,backfire) without it sounding stupid. And yes i know backfires...
